Graco SnugRide 35 Infant Car Seat

It's easy to see why Graco's SnugRide 35 is a popular choice among new parents. The cover is machine washable, the seat angle is easy to adjust, and a cold weather boot and detailed instruction manual are included. But there are some kinks: The harness must be rethreaded when you adjust the height, and the straps are difficult to move through the small slots. Also, the canopy can get in the way when you're adjusting the handle. gracobaby.com.
